About Gueuze, Lambic and more…

This is a truly amazing category of beer.

The few breweries that brew Lambic, then blend to be Gueuze – the famed Cantillon and Drie Fonteinen, the new comer blender Tilquin, the variety and consistency of Boon as much Mort Subite. There are also brews from Girardin and De Troch that aren’t in stock at the moment, but, look out for them in time. Then the curious and perculiar to the lambic brewing scene, the blender, famously Hanssens. It’s hard when you’re this nerdy about Lambic, to not have a growing variety of gueuze and kriek etc.

Yes, Lambic isn’t for everyone’s palate – leathery, acidic, woody, raw and spritzy flavours. But, once you “get it”, you’ll love those flavours. A great come home to beer – the sharp refreshment. That goes oh so well with italian-style dried meats etc.

Save 10% on a mixed case of celebrated and sort after gueuze and kriek. This case ships with a free Boon Glass. Whilst stocks last! [read more here]

It’s not a well hidden secret that we can really dork out when it comes to gueuze, and kriek. Those sour wild fermented beers are a go to, far too often. So much so, we’ve really stocked up and have a good selection.

Love, Love, Love

For the love of your life, for one that you want to show a little bit of tenderness or just because you love beer, we’ve brought together beers for both of you… Fruity, Blond, Strong, Classical and Romantical.

My girlfriend often reminds me that I am not romantic, I am learning, so this email is away from the normal style, I spent hours looking for the most ostentatious, large pair of hearts that I could find on the Internet, fingers crossed that it helps! It’ll be back to normal service soon… read our blog for a tiny bit of insight into what’s been happening, we had some great news and what’s about to. Continue reading →

Colin and I have just got back from a wonderful day, grabbing a selection of Gueuze for all of you!

Beers, all great gueuzes from Cantillon, Drie Fonteinen, De Troch, De Cam, Lindemans, Girardin, Boon etc etc. Anyway without wanting to spoil the surprise and I have a beer festival to go to, and it’s wayyyyy to sunny to be sat at a PC, here’s a few photos from yesterday. (i’ll post links to beermerchants.com as and when they are available, and of course I will put it over twitter too!) Alll in all, it was an awesome day. If anyone ever says to you, “all lambic breweries are alike…” poke ’em in the ear and say, no. They are very very different to the next. And, if you ever want a lesson in Passion, pure energy and commitment… watch Armand DeBelder, genius, legend, talent, commitment, pure passion… awesome moment.

“Join me as I take delivery of some extra special beers that I have just bought from Beermerchants.com.
I was overwhelmed with how good the Lost Abbey beers were at Christmas that I was thirsty for more. Of course, the Lost Abbey beers were quick to sell out but the Port Brewing pack is still available – Port Brewing being a sister company to Lost Abbey in California, but specialising in more hoppy IPA style beers….” READ MORE/CLICK HERE

We really like Steve, always smiling and enjoying beer from whereever, as long as it’s really good! Thanks so much!
